Layers in Xara-Pro 4 versus XaraPro 7

[zaphodeist]

The little triangles, when clicked on and in context, expand the display to show everything in that group or layer or page

If you make the layer gallery (now called "Page & Layer Gallery") wider it will have room to show more of the layer names.

Make sure that you've got the "All layers editable" and "All layers visible" switches turned off if you want to control the visibility and editablity of individual layers. (This is exactly the same as V4.)

To make a US letter size page your default simply open a US letter size page and chose save template and in the dialogue that comes up be sure to check save as default template on the right.

Thanks to all for the help. It's a pretty new interface and I'm an old dog trying to learn new tricks.

And Frances, I looked at a bit of your YouTube videos. What software did you use?

Regards,

Alan

as this is off topic for this thread I've started a new thread here where I've given a bit of detail about how I created the videos.
